Today we spent touring Northern Ireland. A girl in college picked us up, along with Anneri and Rachel who lives in Northern Ireland and was on our training team. We visited the Giant Causeway on the coast of Northern Ireland. It is a natural phenomenon where rocks have been formed with six equal sides. It was a lot of fun, but great to catch up with Rachel who has spent the last 4 months in the United States working with an inner-city ministry in Houston.

We left this morning for Belfast, Northern Ireland. We were fortunate to run into Werner and Suzette, a couple from our ministry in South Africa who are visiting their daughter on the ship. We didn't exactly know where the ship was, but they did. Once we arrived, we found out that we had been given a VIP suite. It was such a blessing, there was no divide in our bed, as opposed to the last 5 months where we had two single beds pushed together. It was great to see some of our friends from training and to see the ministry on the ship.

This morning we landed in London after a good flight. Both of us slept well on the plane which made it possible for us to go explore London today. We are staying at an OM hospitality house and they picked us up at the airport. The man picking us up was wearing a Kent State sweatshirt which was where his wife went to college. The craziest thing of the day was that this couple attends The Chapel in Akron when they are home. It feels like such a small world.
